person About AYNA

BUILT BY A PILOT.
FOR PILOTS.

The airspace is getting complex. The regulations are real. The opportunities are massive. We built the tools we wished we had from day one.

MY PASSION IS MAKING COMPLEX THINGS FLOW.

Before I ever flew a drone, that passion drove everything I built. As an aerospace engineer, I got to make it real — designing mechanical and structural systems, then simulating manned Mars landing missions. Taking something as vast and unforgiving as deep space and reducing it to a framework that works. That's the problem that's always pulled me in.

From Mars, that same drive took me to the ocean floor. At Electric Boat in Connecticut, I designed mechanical systems for nuclear-powered attack submarines — vessels like the Seawolf class, capable of diving to 2,000 feet, running under Arctic ice, operating in virtual silence at full speed. Zero margin for error. Consequences that are final.

At Hanscom Air Force Base in Burlington, MA, I channeled that same passion for simplifying complex engineering problems into solid frameworks — architecting and building systems that supported scientific research for the Air Force and NASA.

When you spend your career turning extreme complexity into systems that just work, that instinct doesn't switch off. It's the foundation everything AYNA is built on.

I'VE SCALED THIS BEFORE.

I founded the original AYNA — the first search engine serving the MENA region — and grew it from a founding team to over 100 people across 6 countries, reaching 5 million users. We were building what Google would later do for that region, years before the playbook existed.

That company taught me what it means to build infrastructure from scratch for an audience that doesn't yet have it. The same opportunity exists right now in commercial drone operations. This is not my first rodeo.

I FLY. I BUILD. I TUNE.

FAA Part 107. FPV builds. Cinematic platforms. ArduPilot and PX4 flight controllers. Telemetry systems. Custom frames fabricated from scratch — including 3D-printed components and cases. Full stack tuning and configuration from props to parameters.

I didn't read about the friction in the drone industry. I lived it. Scattered tools. Compliance workflows that felt like they were designed to fail. Operations software built by people who've never armed a motor or dialed in a PID loop. That's what AYNA exists to replace.

flight Why AI Crew

THE RPIC IS ALONE OUT THERE.

I felt it every time I flew. You're the pilot, the observer, the navigator, and the business owner — all at once. In the air, the questions never stop: Did my drone just leave the authorized airspace? Am I climbing too high? Do I have enough battery to make it back? What's that wind shift doing to my return path?

You're supposed to stay in the moment, scan for threats, manage your aircraft — but your brain is also running compliance checklists, weather assessments, and airspace math simultaneously. One missed variable and you're looking at a flyaway, a violation, or worse.

And when the flight is over, the second job starts. Will my service listing actually get found? Are my prices competitive? Is my maintenance current? Did I log everything the FAA needs? No pilot should have to carry all of that alone.

That's why I built the AI crew. Not a chatbot. Not an assistant. A crew — six specialized agents that each own a domain of your operation so you can focus on what actually matters: flying safely and growing your business.

CONCORD watches compliance. TUCKER tracks your fleet health. MERIDIAN handles dispatch and weather. ARPA supports you in flight. REN manages your records. STERLING runs your business intelligence. You make every decision. Your crew makes sure you have what you need to make it well.

report_problem The Problem We're Solving
THE REGULATIONS WEREN'T THE PROBLEM.
THE TOOLS WERE.

Talking to pilots, I kept hearing the same thing: the FAA scared them off. Not because the rules were impossible — but because nobody had built tools that made compliance feel like a foundation instead of a barrier.

LAANC authorizations in one app. Weather in another. Logbooks in a spreadsheet. Fleet tracking in a third-party tool that doesn't talk to any of them. That's not a workflow — that's a liability.

AYNA integrates it. All of it. So the RPIC stays in command, stays compliant, and stays competitive — today, and as Part 108 reshapes the airspace.

shield What We Stand For

NO COMPROMISES.

person

The RPIC Retains Full Authority

Every system we build, every AI capability we deploy, operates under one absolute principle: the remote pilot in command is in command. Our technology augments human decision-making. It never replaces it.

verified

Compliance Is the Foundation

Part 107 requirements are not a checkbox at the end of a workflow. They are encoded into the architecture from the start. Operators stay compliant not by remembering to — but because the system makes non-compliance the harder path.

Our Success Is Operator Success

We build and license operational technology. Our business model aligns directly with operator outcomes. Every platform decision, every API endpoint, every AI capability exists to drive real operational results.

flag Our Mission

LOWER THE BARRIERS.
NEVER THE STANDARDS.

Our mission is to make safety and compliance the competitive advantage for every commercial drone operator in the U.S. — not the obstacle. As the NAS evolves and Part 108 takes shape, AYNA will be the platform that keeps pilots ready, legal, and ahead of what's coming.

AYNA is built for the pilot who takes their operations seriously.
